I like this recipe because it is so simple to make. I read that cinnamon is very good for you. I found a cinnamon cookie here, but I didn't like that it didn't hold together. I took a recipe of mine and adapted it to the Cinnamon Cookie I wanted. If you choose to glaze this cookie, warm the frosting in the microwave so that it can be spread thinly. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup dark molasses |
1 large egg |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 1/2-2 tablespoons cinnamon |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup ground pecans |
Directions:
1. Mix sugar, oil, molasses and egg.
2. Stir in flour, soda, salt and cinnamon.
3. Mix well.
4. Press the dough into a solid ball and divide in half with a knife.
5. Shape each half into a strip 15 x 1-1/2 3 apart on a greased cookie sheet or a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. You may use a rolling pin to help flatten.
6. Bake 375° until edges are light brown and tops are cracked, 6-7 minutes (soft), 8-9 minutes (crisp).
7. If you want you can glaze them now coming out of the oven with a powdered sugar, milk & vanilla paste.
8. Warm glaze in microwave before spreading on warm cookies.
9. Cool 2 minutes.
10. Cut each strip crosswise into slices for cookie bars.
11. Let cool and enjoy.
